## Summary

**The HEALTH for MOM Act of 2025 would create a voluntary Medicaid option to fund** **coordinated maternity health homes** that manage pregnancy and up to one year of postpartum care. It links medical, behavioral, and social services through individualized care plans to close gaps around delivery and the first year after pregnancy. - Pregnant and postpartum people on Medicaid could enroll in a maternity health home that coordinates prenatal care, behavioral health, oral health, home care, and referrals to supports such as WIC. Coverage continues up to one year after pregnancy unless state eligibility ends sooner. - States could adopt the option after a two year delay and choose payment models like per-member-per-month or prospective payments. For the first four fiscal quarters after a state plan amendment, federal matching for these payments would be 15 percentage points higher, up to a 90% cap, and $50 million in planning grants are authorized over two years to help states plan. - Designated providers and multidisciplinary teams must meet federal qualification standards, notify maternity homes after emergency visits, and coordinate with pediatric and social services. States must report enrollment, quality measures, and maternal morbidity and mortality data annually with postpartum deaths split into 0–42 days and 43 days to 1 year.

## Provisions PRIA read

- New Medicaid maternity health homes: benefit, high. This bill would let states offer "maternity health homes" under Medicaid starting two years after enactment. If your state opts in, you could enroll if you are pregnant and have full Medicaid benefits (not a pregnancy-only package). Coverage would continue until your state eligibility ends or up to…
- Higher federal match for maternity care: benefit, medium. If your state launches a maternity health home, the federal share of those payments would rise by 15 percentage points for the first four fiscal quarters. The increase could not push the federal share above 90 percent. This could lower the state share and make it easier for states to start the prog…
- Reporting and privacy for maternity homes: benefit, low. Providers would need to report basic info and quality measures to get paid for maternity health home services. States would have to protect privacy, and report program data to the federal government at least once a year. States would also post an implementation report within 18 months of plan appro…
- State grants to plan maternity homes: benefit, low. The bill would give $50 million for state planning grants to build these Medicaid maternity health homes. Grant awards could start October 1, 2025, and the money would be available for two years from enactment, until spent. Each state that applies would get a grant, but total payments could not exc…
